On the night of December 16, the apartment of singer Dev Hynes, a.k.a. Blood Orange, caught on fire, causing the artist to lose all of his possessions, as well as his small puppy. The artist took to Twitter to share the bad news:

The fundraiser set an initial goal of $5,000, but, since it went up yesterday morning, it's brought in more than $23,000 from nearly 900 contributors.

She added that any extra money would be donated to charity. For those interested in donating, the page can be found here.
